Comments on: It’s been 15 years since I caught my last plow train and when word slipped OSR was running one down the old Port Burwell I found it hard to believe. We had only received maybe 10 cm of snow in the area. Hardly enough in my mind for a plow run to be worth it. Low and behold a drive over to Salford early in the morning revealed OSR crews having readied the plow with their pair of F units. There were sections of the track that had drifted over the railhead and I tried to seek a location that had potential for some good action but at bay from other photographers. My first shot of the day came a few miles south of Salford as the engineer aboard 6508 accelerated plow 401005 into a mildly drifted section of the sub. Goes to show you don’t need a lot of snow to come out with a decent action shot of a plow.

Great action shot. Wings out, nose down, throttle pulled back.

Nice effort, Dave. At first I thought, :where the heck is there any snow”? … having forgotten living in the “banana belt” of Niagara means we do not see as much of that stuff here.
